<p>RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING, RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING - RSA signatures</p>

<h1 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h1>

<pre><code>#include &lt;openssl/rsa.h&gt;</code></pre>

<p>The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be hidden entirely by defining <b>OPENSSL_API_COMPAT</b> with a suitable version value, see <a href="../man7/openssl_user_macros.html">openssl_user_macros(7)</a>:</p>

<pre><code>int RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(int dummy, unsigned char *m,
                               unsigned int m_len, unsigned char *sigret,
                               unsigned int *siglen, RSA *rsa);

int RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(int dummy, unsigned char *m,
                                 unsigned int m_len, unsigned char *sigbuf,
                                 unsigned int siglen, RSA *rsa);</code></pre>

<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>

<p>All of the functions described on this page are deprecated. Applications should instead use EVP PKEY APIs.</p>

<p>RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() signs the octet string <b>m</b> of size <b>m_len</b> using the private key <b>rsa</b> represented in DER using PKCS #1 padding. It stores the signature in <b>sigret</b> and the signature size in <b>siglen</b>. <b>sigret</b> must point to <b>RSA_size(rsa)</b> bytes of memory.</p>

<p><b>dummy</b> is ignored.</p>

<p>The random number generator must be seeded when calling RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(). If the automatic seeding or reseeding of the OpenSSL CSPRNG fails due to external circumstances (see <a href="../man7/RAND.html">RAND(7)</a>), the operation will fail.</p>

<p>RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() verifies that the signature <b>sigbuf</b> of size <b>siglen</b> is the DER representation of a given octet string <b>m</b> of size <b>m_len</b>. <b>dummy</b> is ignored. <b>rsa</b> is the signer&#39;s public key.</p>

<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>

<p>RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise. RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING() returns 1 on successful verification, 0 otherwise.</p>

<p>The error codes can be obtained by <a href="../man3/ERR_get_error.html">ERR_get_error(3)</a>.</p>

<h1 id="BUGS">BUGS</h1>

<p>These functions serve no recognizable purpose.</p>
